Integrating Communities (IA-2)

by Daniel Dubois last modified Feb 25, 2011 16:15

Motivation

Mobility and training of researchers will contribute to a better integration of Software Services and
Systems research in Europe and is a major action towards achieving sustainable knowledge
integration. Mobility and training complement each other and will often be implemented in
combination. For example, the use of mobility instruments to stimulate exchange of researchers is an
important support measure for integration and training through which research benefits from access to
common infrastructure facilities. Knowledge integration and transfer should not only be realized at the
level of the research community, but should involve European industry to institutionalize enduring
collaborations with them and embed research in industrial practices.

Objectives

The overall objectives of this activity are summarised as follows:

  • Mobility of Researchers (WP-IA-2.1): Contribute to the integration of staff by providing a diverse and vigorous program of education, training and specialist courses for researchers and an intensive mobility plan to support the mobility of researchers and PhD students within the network as a major action to achieve cross-fertilisation of knowledge and durable research integration.
  • Alignment with European Industry Practices (WP-IA-2.2): Contribute to research/industry community outreach by providing support for industrial technological research related to services technologies and organization of peer-to-peer meetings with EU researchers, analysts, and industry representatives. Such meetings will give prospective industrial partners occasions for collaboration and the exchange of needs, which may lead to the implementation of SOC technology in their business. 
  • Contribute to (research/industry and other disciplines) community outreach by active participation in conferences (e.g., the International Conference on Service Oriented Computing, the International Conference on Software Engineering) to present the entire spectrum from theoretical and foundational results and empirical evaluations of research outcomes as well as practical and industrial experiences and establish bridges with other disciplines to jointly address open common research challenges.

Coordination

This activity (IA-2) is coordinated by Politecnico di Milano.
